Stock-based Compensation
Note 10. Stock-based Compensation
We issue equity awards to our employees and non-employees in the form of stock options, restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and performance based RSUs (“PRSUs”). Additionally, we also offer an employee stock purchase plan (“ESPP”) to our eligible employees. We use the Black-Scholes option pricing model to value our stock options granted and the estimated shares to be purchased under the ESPP. For both RSUs and PRSUs, we use our common stock price, which is the last reported sales price on the grant date to value those securities.
In general, we recognize stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period and record forfeitures as they occur. For PRSUs, we use the graded vesting method to calculate the stock-based compensation expense. At each reporting period, we recognize and adjust the stock-based compensation expense based on our probability assessment in meeting our PRSUs' performance conditions.

There was no recognized tax benefit related to stock-based compensation for the periods presented.
